Yo moved form Google search to yahoo search. I left yahoo years ago as I was hacked every other day and they do not care about security at all and all their search page gives me is a list of more search pages not what I want to see, I want what I was searching for. I hate all things yahoo and since you are making it so hard to leave ysearch I am now going to have to move to chrome which I do not love but at least google will give me things I am looking for not just a list of other search engines for it. I use firefox at home and work but now will leave it permanently as I really hate all things yahoo. I tried to get help this is all they told me I could do

Mozilla cut off all ties to Yahoo a couple of years ago. Not caused by the basic Firefox installation.

It sounds like you have a third party program that has taken over your search engine, home page, and/or the default new tab page. Fortunately, this can be remedied easily:

  1. Click the menu button The image "fx57menu" does not exist. and choose Add-ons.
  2. In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Extensions panel.
  3. Select the toolbar you wish to remove.
  4. Click the Remove button.
  5. Click "Restart now" if it pops up. Your tabs will be saved and restored after the restart.

For further information, please read Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page.

Yahoo search was removed from locales that had it as of Firefox 57.0 Release and later.
